Heading to a museum. We've had a harsh time out in the Wasteland... Had to blow up a town and everything. Met some nice locals, they gave me room, so long as I killed off 'em foulfaced Ghouls! Even gots me a shotgun and muttonchops. Yee-haw!

Despite all of the flaws... I found myself hooked once I sat down to play it myself (instead of watching someone else play) =X

I think the thing that's upsetting people the most is how much potential was wasted by certain decisions Bethesda made~

I think I've pinpointed the exact reason why it just puts me off so much and that's the black and white decision making.  It's a HUUUUGE step up from the standard "you must report this to the guards... or let me handle it hehehe" choices that maybe 2 or 3 Oblivion quests give you but everything is so clear and concise. 

"Hey you.  You're new here, aren't you.  Don't fuck up or I'll rip your fucking eyes out and shove them so far up your fucking ass you'll see shit coming."

*I'm a good person.  See, there's a little halo above my head!
*Fine, whatever.
*FUCK YOU! FUCK YOU AND THE TOWN YOU BLEW OUT OF RAAAAAAGE

I did like how if you convinced the guys in Tenpenny towers to allow the Ghouls in they ended up killing everyone regardless.  That whole "do good but end up failing anyways" is the kind of black humor I expect from Fallout.

Also hey, how the HELL do you get to the Galaxy News Radio building when it gets marked on your map? I cannot find any path at all that leads to it.

It's through some metro station outside of DC not too far from the Super-Duper Mart that leads to Chavy Chase North(is there really a place named Chavy Chase in the real world?) and then you get to follow a few BoS guys to the radio station and kill a bunch of Super Mutants.

I was hoping that this was gonna be good, but everyone is right: it's oblivion with guns and fallout story. It's not awful, and it's something to pass the time with.

by the way, it is really really dumb how any time you steal something it makes that annoying ominous sound.  *picks up a butter knife, SWEEPING ORCHESTRAL MUSIC*

can i turn this off?


also this games too goddamn dark.  is there a flashlight or something?  i think i saw them mentioned in the topic, but i've yet to encounter one.  i really have to strain my eyes to see anything in broad daylight; it's not such a great way to play!

I hope there is a way to turn it off thru mod, but it's a sound that plays whenever your Karma goes down.

man i pretty much don't know what to buy for.

i had it set to buy far cry 2 & fallout & fable 2 so now all three have these gaping flaws that i didn't expect (far cry 2: AI, long-ass time to go to places, cheapness --- fallout: fucking OBLIVION WITH GUNS --- fable 2: too easy/bullshit with one button/some parts boring & lame)

so does anyone have any idea of what would be the best choice to spend $60 on right now

MUST... SPEND..... MONEY!!!!!!!!!!!

what no i had planned to save up to buy all 3 of these

then now i don't really have that money saved up so i want to pick one of the three....but i don't know which because there's mixed reviews everywhere about all 3.
